Retired!

My husband Tom has been retired for a few years and now that I've just retired, we decided to take a trip across our country to visit all the beautiful places we have here. So for the last few months I have been searching the internet for sites on traveling across the country in a camper. Most of the sites I've visited have been wonderful but not much that I have been able to find with a small pop up like ours. So I've decided to blog about this trip that will happen in a few short months taking us through approximately 26 states in about 41 days.
The last few years we have taken our pop up to Cape Breton, Canada for family vacations and found lots of nice amenities that have made our time there comfortable. Tom tells me I'm "nesting". But if I'm going to spend two weeks outside, I want it to be as much like home as I can make it. OK, so not really like being home but not that bad either! I love cooking, so having cooking utensils that allow me to make tasty meals is important.
I should mention our pop up is a 2015 QuickSilver 8.0 Livin Lite. Only weighs 865 pounds. We pull it with our Subaru outback. We just upgraded our Subaru this year to a 6 cylinder model because pulling it loaded for two weeks with 3 adults was a little bit of a strain on our 4 cylinder.
Going across the country this May we won't be bringing much weight with us but will be nice having the heavier car going up mountains.
